silent tears who gives a (insert censored word) {being sweet doesn't mean those words never cross the tongue, which caressed your ear} if there's still one more beat of her heart left before it meets with the toe of your boot while the stars grew weary of holding out their arms she fell crucified by the willows and he shook the tree with "don't go" and she cried "give me back the stars" "i need you", he admitted and hope, like love dangled and wept soaking the roots with fate's blood before him she stood "i love you" was whispered by two hearts still beating, but staked to the willow and she took from her eyes two stars still alive and placed them where his heart used to be "i won't leave you" but still those two hearts, stay pierced, to the tree beatingtogether, and apart ©snow "...why does my skeleton pursue me |

and she took from her eyes two stars still alive and placed them where his heart used to be "i won't leave you" Love the longing in this tender beauty of yours. Seems your poetry is as soft as your pen name. |

i'm not sure what anybody sees in that picture other than someone in pain... if you're seeing something sexual (by the comment)... then i'm sorry that wasn't the intent at all. (because i obviously don't see it and it wouldn't have gone with my work at all) thank you all for the comments.. richy, it's good to hear you didn't expect it... that made me feel like i accomplished what i wanted. ARH, to know that you were interested in every line, is one of the nicest things i've heard. again.. thank you all so much!! snow "...why does my skeleton pursue me |

(big angel hugs) This is very sad but well-written, dearest friend, it hurts to be both pinned down and apart, love needs to dissolve together to work! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Snow, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
